From Breitbart:
Fox News anchor Chris Wallace argued Thursday during his network’s coverage of the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump that House managers have made a “powerful” case against the president.
Wallace said, “You can say if you think it’s impeachable or not. They have made a powerful case. They have a lot of witnesses. They have a lot of graphics. They have a lot of evidence. I can’t imagine what I have for 16 more hours, and I wonder, to some degree, whether when the White House gets its turn, they are going to be disadvantaged by this because yes, they will have new things to say.”
“We haven’t heard them nearly as much as we have the House Democrats, but this will be on top of the 24 hours we have already gone through with the House Democrats,” he continued. “And I wonder how patient senators are going to be for another 24 hours, although they probably won’t use all of that for the defense of the White House.”


welovetrump--2020-01-25--Stefanik Unloads On “Weakest Case For Impeachment In The History Of This Country”

Here 's a transcript of what she had to say from the GOP website : STEVE DOOCY : Am I getting this wrong , wasn ’ t it the job of the House to call all the witnesses , get all the information and then they ’ ll take the evidence , they ’ ll walk from the House over to the Senate , and say , ‘ Okay , this is what we ’ ve gathered , you be the jurors , you decide.
’ REP. ELISE STEFANIK : That ’ s exactly right and the Democrats ’ case @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scrambling at this point .
If you take a step back and really remember the House impeachment proceedings , Republicans were not able to call our requested witnesses .
So Adam Schiff is being completely hypocritical .
The only thing he has said that ’ s accurate is this is an unfair trial .
It ’ s unfair to the President .
If you think about–this impeachment process has been going on for 70-plus days .
Yesterday was the first day that the President ’ s legal team was even able to participate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not how the precedent was for both the Clinton and Nixon impeachment .
So the person who limited witnesses was Adam Schiff .
DOOCY : And you remember when they said ‘ We want to hear from John Bolton , ’ then they were going to go to court .
Then , out of nowhere , they say , ‘ You know what , we ’ re going to withdraw that subpoena for Mr. Bolton.
’ They had their chance and now they ’ re saying that unless the senators in that house @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s bring in a whole bunch of new faces then those Republicans are part of the coverup , they ’ re complicit , they are obstructing justice .
REP. STEFANIK : This process has been unconstitutional , unfair , and unprecedented .
And the fact that Democrats chose not to pursue this in the courts shows that they don ’ t have a case and I think they were rushed on an arbitrary deadline to get this done before the holidays , but again , when it comes to the witness question , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ witnesses and Adam Schiff did not allow any Republican witnesses to be called unless they were on the Democrats ’ list .
So it is unfair , Adam Schiff is unfair and the way he ’ s conducting this is unconstitutional .

Here's a transcript of what she had to say from the GOP website:
STEVE DOOCY: Am I getting this wrong, wasn’t it the job of the House to call all the witnesses, get all the information and then they’ll take the evidence, they’ll walk from the House over to the Senate, and say, ‘Okay, this is what we’ve gathered, you be the jurors, you decide.’
REP. ELISE STEFANIK: That’s exactly right and the Democrats’ case is so flimsy that they’re scrambling at this point. If you take a step back and really remember the House impeachment proceedings, Republicans were not able to call our requested witnesses. So Adam Schiff is being completely hypocritical. The only thing he has said that’s accurate is this is an unfair trial. It’s unfair to the President. If you think about–this impeachment process has been going on for 70-plus days.

REP. STEFANIK: This process has been unconstitutional, unfair, and unprecedented. And the fact that Democrats chose not to pursue this in the courts shows that they don’t have a case and I think they were rushed on an arbitrary deadline to get this done before the holidays, but again, when it comes to the witness question, Republicans specifically and formally asked to call witnesses and Adam Schiff did not allow any Republican witnesses to be called unless they were on the Democrats’ list. So it is unfair, Adam Schiff is unfair and the way he’s conducting this is unconstitutional.

And that’s why I’ve called on Congress – two of our great senators here, so many of our congressmen here – I called upon them to defend the dignity of life and to pass legislation prohibiting late-term abortion of children who can feel pain in their mother's womb. [applause]
This year, the March for Life is celebrating the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment, which forever enshrined women's rights to vote in the United States and given by the United States constitution. Such a big event. Today, millions of extraordinary women across America are using the power of their votes to fight for the right and all of their rights as given in the Declaration of Independence – it’s the right to life. [applause]
To all the women here today, your devotion and your leadership uplifts our entire nation and we thank you for that. The tens of thousands of Americans gathered today not only stand for life – it’s really here that they stand for it so proudly together. And I want to thank everybody for that. You stand for life each and every day. You provide housing, education, jobs, and medical care to the women that you serve. You find loving families for children in need of a forever home. You host baby showers for expecting moms. You make – you just make it your life's mission to help spread God's grace.
And to all the moms here today, we celebrate you and we declare that mothers are heroes. [applause] Your strength, devotion, and drive is what powers our nation. Because of you, our country has been blessed with amazing souls who have changed the course of human history.
We cannot know what our citizens yet unborn will achieve. The dreams they will imagine. The masterpieces they will create. The discoveries they will make. But we know this: every life brings love into this world. Every child brings joy to a family. Every person is worth protecting.
And above all, we know that every human soul is divine and every human life, born and unborn, is made in the holy image of Almighty God. [applause]
Together, we will defend this truth all across our magnificent land. We will set free the dreams of our people. And with determined hope, we look forward to all of the blessings that will come from the beauty, talent, purpose, nobility, and grace of every American child.

welovetrump--2020-01-25--Two Carter Page FISA Applications Found To Be “Not Valid”!

At least two of the FBI ’ s surveillance applications to secretly monitor former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page lacked probable cause , according to a newly declassified summary of a Justice Department assessment released Thursday by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court ( FISC ) .
The DOJ 's admission essentially means that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act ( FISA ) warrant authorizations to surveil Page , when stripped of the FBI 's misinformation , did not meet the necessary legal threshold and should never have been issued .
The June 2017 Page FISA warrant renewal , which was among @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , was approved by then-Acting FBI Director ( and now CNN contributor ) Andrew McCabe , as well as former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein .
The April 2017 warrant renewal was approved by then-FBI Director James Comey .

`` I hope that this latest admission of guilt for these civil rights abuses by the Justice Department marks continued @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reputationally ruinous injuries.

Its admission and cooperation with the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ direction . ''
FISC Presiding Judge James Boasberg , in the Jan. 7 order that was published for the first time Thursday , further required the government to explain in a written statement by Jan. 28 the `` FBI 's handling of information '' obtained through the Page warrants and subsequent renewals .
Boasberg specifically noted the DOJ found `` there was insufficient predication to establish probable cause to believe that Page was acting as an agent of a foreign power '' because of the `` material misstatements and omissions '' in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ technically only covered two of the applications to renew the Page FISA warrant , the DOJ `` apparently does not take a position on the validity '' on the first two Page FISA applications , Boasberg said , seemingly indicating that the DOJ seemingly did not want to defend their legality either .

From Fox News:
At least two of the FBI’s surveillance applications to secretly monitor former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page lacked probable cause, according to a newly declassified summary of a Justice Department assessment released Thursday by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC).
The DOJ's admission essentially means that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant authorizations to surveil Page, when stripped of the FBI's misinformation, did not meet the necessary legal threshold and should never have been issued.
The June 2017 Page FISA warrant renewal, which was among the two deemed invalid by the DOJ, was approved by then-Acting FBI Director (and now CNN contributor) Andrew McCabe, as well as former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. The April 2017 warrant renewal was approved by then-FBI Director James Comey.
“Today’s unprecedented court filing represents another step on the road to recovery for America’s deeply damaged judicial system," Page said in a statement to Fox News. "I hope that this latest admission of guilt for these civil rights abuses by the Justice Department marks continued progress towards restoring justice and remedying these reputationally ruinous injuries.”
Added Iowa GOP Sen. Chuck Grassley, who previously chaired the Judiciary Committee: “It’s about time.

Its admission and cooperation with the FISC is a step in the right direction."
FISC Presiding Judge James Boasberg, in the Jan. 7 order that was published for the first time Thursday, further required the government to explain in a written statement by Jan. 28 the "FBI's handling of information" obtained through the Page warrants and subsequent renewals.
Boasberg specifically noted the DOJ found "there was insufficient predication to establish probable cause to believe that Page was acting as an agent of a foreign power" because of the "material misstatements and omissions" in the warrant applications.
Although the DOJ assessment technically only covered two of the applications to renew the Page FISA warrant, the DOJ "apparently does not take a position on the validity" on the first two Page FISA applications, Boasberg said, seemingly indicating that the DOJ seemingly did not want to defend their legality either. The government "intends to sequester information acquired pursuant to those" FISA applications "in the same manner as information acquired pursuant to the subsequent dockets," the judge said.

The Trump administration on Friday threatened California with a potential loss of federal health care funds over the state's requirement that insurance plans cover abortions.

"If states receive federal funds ... they cannot discriminate against a health plan that declines to cover abortions," said Severino.
Severino did not specify which of many streams of federal health care funds amounting to tens of billions of dollars might be in jeopardy for California. That could include money for community health centers, Medicaid health insurance for low-income people, and basic public health activities like educating parents about vaccines.
"Our goal is to seek compliance, and we are going to give them 30 days, so we do not have to cross that bridge," said Severino. Other states could also face federal actions.
Federal law has long barred the use of taxpayer money to pay for abortions, except in cases of rape, incest, or to save the life of the woman. That bipartisan consensus could change if a Democrat wins the White House in November, since the Democratic candidates have pledged to take a more assertive stance on abortion rights.

The Washington Times had more on the story : President Trump ’ s personal attorney Rudolph Giuliani said in a video posted Friday that senators should move to dismiss Democrats ’ articles of impeachment because they do not allege anything for which the president can be removed .
As Mr. Trump ’ s trial entered its fifth day , Mr. Giuliani said Democrats should finish their “ entirely partisan picture ” of why they believe Mr. Trump abused his power vis-a-vis Ukraine and then obstructed Congress .
He also thinks Republicans should respond with an opening statement “ as to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ why this is totally unjustified.
” But then , “ there should be a vote , a motion should be made to dismiss the articles of impeachment for failure to state an impeachable offense , similar to [ dismissing ] an indictment for failure to state a crime , ” Mr. Giuliani said .

welovetrump--2020-01-27--DEVELOPING:  3 Rockets Hit U.S. Embassy In Baghdad

At least one rocket hit a dining facility Sunday on the compound of the US Embassy in Baghdad , a US official told CNN .
The official said at this early stage there are reports of minor damage .
`` We are aware of reports of rockets landing in the International Zone , a State Department spokesperson said Sunday evening but did not specifically address the embassy itself .
While the State Department is not directly blaming Iranian-backed militia groups for the attack , the spokesperson referenced Iran 's threat in the region and past attacks by such militias on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ remains tense and Iranian-backed armed groups remain a threat .
So , we remain vigilant , '' the spokesperson said .
The US is calling on the government of Iraq `` to fulfill its obligations to protect our diplomatic facilities , '' the State Department spokesperson said .
The department noted that it will not comment further on the security situation in Baghdad and did not address whether any employees were injured .
Since September , there have been more than 14 attacks either by the Iranian government or militias backed by Tehran @ @ @ @ @ @ @ according to the State Department .
Rep. Michael McCaul , the lead Republican on the House Foreign Affairs committee , said in a tweet Sunday that he is `` closely monitoring reports of a rocket attack targeting the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad . ''
`` Violent acts against our diplomatic facilities are simply unacceptable .
We must ensure the safety of American diplomats , troops and other Americans in Iraq . ''
Adil Abdul Mahdi , the prime minister of Iraq , condemned the attack and said Iraqi forces have been ordered to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to prevent the recurrence of such attacks , and to arrest those who launched these rockets so that they can be punished . ''

ABC News had more:
The U.S. Embassy compound in Baghdad was hit by multiple rockets on Sunday, two U.S. officials told ABC News.
This is the first time the compound has been hit directly in years and comes just weeks after pro-Iranian militia members and their supporters assaulted the compound in Iraq.
Rocket attacks on the Green Zone are very common. Last week three rockets were fired into Baghdad's Green Zone, the heavily fortified area of the capital that houses the embassy, government buildings and U.S. service members. Iraqi officials said Monday that there were no injuries.
Both U.S. officials told ABC News that the dining hall was hit directly in Sunday's attack. One of the officials said there were a total of five rockets fired and that three hit the embassy compound.
There were no reported fatalities. There were no immediate claims of responsibility.


welovetrump--2020-01-26--President Trump Says Schiff Has “Not Yet” Paid The Price For His Corruption

And for a less biased opinion , here is the NY Post : President Trump railed against Rep. Adam Schiff on Sunday , calling him “ CORRUPT ” and saying he has “ not paid the price , yet ” — in Twitter posts the California Democrat said he takes as a threat .
“ Shifty Adam Schiff is a CORRUPT POLITICIAN , and probably a very sick man .
He has not paid the price , yet , for what he has done to our Country !
” Trump said of Schiff , who ’ s leading the team @ @ @ @ @ @ @ case against Trump in the Senate impeachment trial .
“ The Impeachment Hoax is a massive election interference the likes of which has never been seen before .
In just two hours the Radical Left , Do Nothing Democrats have seen their phony case absolutely shredded .
Shifty is now exposed for illegally making up my phone call , & more !
” Schiff , the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee that spearheaded the initial House impeachment inquiry , appeared on NBC ’ s “ Meet the Press ” Sunday and was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a threat .
“ I think it ’ s intended to be , ” Schiff said .
“ But look , it is going to be very difficult for some of these senators to stand up to this president .
It really is .
There ’ s just no question about it.
” “ This is a wrathful and vindictive president ; I don ’ t think there ’ s any doubt about it , ” he continued .
“ And if you think there is , look at the president ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I should ‘ pay a price.
’ ” The question came up when NBC ’ s Chuck Todd asked Schiff about criticism he received from GOP senators when he referred to a CBS report that their heads saying would be “ on a pike ” if they don ’ t support the president in the impeachment trial .
“ I don ’ t think it was personal to refer to this CBS story .
I made the argument that it ’ s going to require moral courage to stand up to this president @ @ @ @ @ @ @ James Lankford was asked during an appearance on CNN if Trump ’ s comment could be construed as a threat against Schiff , who host Jake Tapper said has been getting death threats .
“ No , that is not what the president is trying to do , ” Lankford , of Oklahoma , said .
“ And the people will hold him accountable for that , and Nancy Pelosi the same way , and both are saying that the American people will speak on this.
” Tapper then asked why Republicans ripped @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pike ” comment , but didn ’ t criticize Trump for his Twitter comments .
“ I don ’ t think it ’ s a death threat , ” Lankford said .
“ I don ’ t think he ’ s encouraging death threats.
” Rep. Zoe Lofgren , a member of the House impeachment legal team , cautioned Trump to be “ more presidential ” in his language .

Here's more, from Vox:
In a Sunday morning tweet, President Donald Trump said House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Adam Schiff would have to pay a “price” for his leading role in the impeachment trial.
“Shifty Adam Schiff is a CORRUPT POLITICIAN, and probably a very sick man,” the president wrote. “He has not paid the price, yet, for what he has done to our Country!”
The president did not immediately clarify whether he meant the tweet to be a threat, as it appears to be, but Schiff certainly took it as one.
The lawmaker was quick to respond — through his own Twitter account, and on NBC’s Meet the Press, where he called Trump a “wrathful and vindictive” president. Schiff also told NBC’s Chuck Todd he thought the tweet was “intended to be” a threat against him.
The president appeared to be aware of what Schiff said on the program, attacking its host and Schiff shortly after the segment aired, calling Todd “a fraud and corrupt” and Schiff a “conman.”
Trump often targets Todd and Schiff on Twitter
Sunday’s tweets are merely the latest in a long line of Twitter attacks the president has launched against Schiff and Todd.
The president often uses the press as a foil, having branded it the “enemy of the people,” and seems to have particular disdain for Todd, who he has accused of trying “to make me look as bad as possible.” This has led to tweets like Sunday’s, as well as naked antagonism, like a 2015 tweet in which the president wrote, “Sleep eyes [Chuck Todd] is killing Meet The Press. Isn’t he pathetic? Love watching him fail!”

Trump’s anger toward Schiff stems from the congressman’s crucial involvement in the impeachment trial; Schiff helped oversee the impeachment inquiry, and has led the arguments for the president’s removal in the Senate trial.
The president often attacks the lawmaker, as he did in his Sunday tweet, over Schiff’s decision to paraphrase a memo of Trump’s call transcript with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, in which the president asked for an investigation into the Biden family. Although Schiff clearly noted that he was simply stating “the essence of what the president communicates,” Trump claimed Schiff incorrectly represented the call — and has used the incident to insult Schiff ever since.
Schiff’s fellow impeachment manager, Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA), appeared on CNN’s State of the Union to criticize Trump’s Sunday tweet as “unfortunate,” and also said that he had a “tendency to say things that seem threatening to people.”

Thousands Already Lined Up In New Jersey, Over 24 Hours Before Trump Set To Arrive!  100,000+ Tickets Issued!

And from the Washington Times : There is much talk that New Jersey might one day flip from blue to red — particularly after Rep. Jefferson Van Drew , a New Jersey Democrat , left his party in December and became a Republican .
President Trump personally welcomed him to the White House .
Mr. Van Drew reports that 100,000 people are now seeking tickets to one of Mr. Trump ’ s signature Keep America Great rallies , to be staged in Wildwood , New Jersey , on Jan. 28 in a venue that only seats about 7,500 .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was in 1891 , when Benjamin Harrison came to call .
Interest in the rally has proved to be a record-breaker for the Trump campaign .
“ It ’ s exciting .
And I ’ m proud to say for this event — of all the events President Trump has done — we ’ ve had the most ticket requests , ” Mr. Van Drew told Fox News .
Other details reflect some shifting political sands in the state .
New Jersey Women for Trump — a grassroots interest group — recently went @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over 15,000 members in a matter of weeks .
“ We are an independent support group for women and men who feel they are alone in their beliefs towards our president .
Our goal is to tap into the silent majority of New Jersey women and men and let them know that they are not alone in their support of our president , ” the organization noted in a mission statement .
Mr. Van Drew , meanwhile , will be on the stage with the president when the time comes later this month @ @ @ @ @ @ @ function , there ’ s no question about that , ” Wildwood Mayor Ernie Troiano Jr. told the Cape May Herald , a local news organization .
“ Trump brings out many emotions from people .
His supporters are very passionate , and the folks that dislike him are very passionate .
There are going to be a lot of emotions running wild on the 28th , ” the mayor predicted .

NJ.com reports:
About 100,000 tickets have been requested for President Donald Trump’s rally at the Wildwoods Convention Center next week - the highest demand for any event the president has held, U.S. Rep. Jeff Van Drew told Fox News during an interview Sunday.
“It’s been exciting and I’m proud to say for his event - of all the events he’s done in all the country - we’ve had the most ticket requests,” said Van Drew, R-2nd Dist., who recently switched parties after losing support from Democratic leaders for opposing impeachment.
Trump is slated to appear at the Wildwoods Convention Center at 7 p.m. on Jan. 28. Trump’s re-election campaign announced he was coming to Cape May County earlier this month to support Van Drew.
Van Drew was one of two Democratic congressman to vote against the president’s impeachment and changed parties officially soon after.
“We’re proud to have him,” Van Drew said. “It shows he cares about the big towns and big places and he also cars about the little places.”
The claim that the New Jersey rally broke a record for ticket requests could not be independently verified. While news organizations have reported on crowd sizes at other Trump rallies, news reports often do no include the number of people who requested tickets ahead of an event.
Tickets for the Wildwood rally were made available online for free. Event organizers have said they are making plans for overflow crowds.
Wildwood Mayor Pete Byron said last week he had heard estimates that 40,000 tickets had been issued for an eventbeing held in a venue that can hold 7,400 people. There is also the possibility another 10,000 may show up to the city.
About 150,000 people are in Wildwood on a typical summer day, a Cape May County spokeswoman said.
The city has about 5,000 year-round residents.
